Stanton A. Hazlett, disciplinary administrator, argued the cause and was on
the formal complaint for the
petitioner.

Jeffrey P. Johnson, respondent, appeared pro se.

Per Curiam: This is an uncontested proceeding in discipline filed by the office
of the
Disciplinary Administrator against Jeffrey P. Johnson, an attorney admitted to practice law in the
State of Kansas. Respondent's last registration address filed with the Clerk of the Appellate
Courts of Kansas is in Kansas City, Missouri.

The complaint filed against respondent arises out of a final adjudication in Missouri that
respondent was guilty of violating the Missouri Rules of Professional Conduct (Disciplinary Case
File No. 99-0737-IV). The complaint herein is filed pursuant to Rule 202 (2001 Kan. Ct. R.
Annot. 221), which provides, inter alia: "A final adjudication in another jurisdiction
that a lawyer
has been guilty of misconduct shall establish conclusively the misconduct for purposes of a
disciplinary proceeding in this state."

The Missouri proceeding involved two separate counts. The first count involved
professional misconduct by the respondent in representing a client in an action for fraudulent sale
of a wrecked automobile. The second count was based upon respondent's failure to respond to
the complaint set out in count I.

By order dated April 2, 2001, the Missouri Supreme Court disbarred the respondent. The
disbarment was based primarily on the respondent's failure to timely file an answer or request for
hearing within the time required.

A hearing before the panel of the Kansas Board for Discipline of Attorneys was held
March 26, 2002. Disciplinary Administrator Stanton A. Hazlett appeared for the Disciplinary
Administrator's office, and the respondent appeared in person and proceeded pro se.

The court, having considered the record and the panel's final hearing report, concurs in
and adopts the panel's conclusions and recommendations.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Jeffrey P. Johnson be and he is hereby indefinitely
suspended from the practice of law in the State of Kansas, effective the date of this opinion.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Jeffrey P. Johnson shall forthwith comply with the
provisions of Supreme Court Rule 218 (2001 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 276), that the costs of these
proceedings be assessed to the respondent, and that this opinion be published in the official
Kansas Reports.

LARSON, S.J., assigned.
